What You Need?

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (128 g) almond butter* (Buy)

• 1/2 cup (120 g) canned pumpkin puree

• 1 large egg

• 6 Tbsp (120 g) honey

• 1/4 cup (20 g) unsweetened cocoa powder (Buy)

• 2 tsp vanilla extract

• 1/2 tsp baking soda

• optional: 3 Tbsp (30 g) dairy-free chocolate chips, for topping

*You can use Table Salted Butter as well.

Recipe

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C) and prepare an 8 x 8 (20 x 20 cm) baking pan by lining it with a sheet of butter paper, leaving a few inches of overhang on the sides to allow for easy removal. Set aside.

2. Add all the ingredients except for the chocolate chips to a high-speed blender or food processor in the order listed, and process on high until the batter becomes smooth and creamy.

3. Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan, using a spatula to distribute it evenly. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

4. If you want to add the melted chocolate (read: Calories) topping, place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe dish, and nuke them in 30 second intervals until they're completely melted. Then, pour the chocolate over the brownies and use a spoon or spatula to spread it around.

5. Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days
